Ibrahim and I met at Essence of India. I find more comfortable meeting outside around other English speakers. Ibrahim level is at a more advanced level than Sunny. He needs to just become more fluent in his speech.
He seemed to be more comfortable ordering his food. While their were a few minor moments that required redirecting, his ability to communicate overall went fairly well.
I think that Ibrahim's writing is something he should practice. I have to find something more appropriate for his level. I brought a the newspaper to listen to him read. The democrat seemed to have a simpler vocabulary for him to understand.
We review some of the vocabulary, and talked about the differences in the crime in Turkey and here in the states. How the newspaper is formatted in Turkey.
Ibrahim's reading is around a low level 4. I think next session we will focus more on proper pronunciation. We are planning to meet again in the new year.
Did he feel comfortable with reading the paper? What sections did you let him read?
